Peyton Manning update

Let’s not overlook the obvious: The Broncos’ scrimmage Saturday at Sports Authority Field at Mile High is foremost about new quarterback Peyton Manning. This is his show.

As the crowd is in the process of filtering in, Manning is on the field wearing a gray T-shirt, white visor, blue shorts and white cleats. He was throwing a few easy routes to Eric Decker and getting nice applause with every practice completion.

It’s 3:16 p.m. The team warmup to practice begins at 3:50 p.m. with the live scrimmage scheduled to start about 5 p.m. A crowd of around 30,000 is expected. The previous record crowd for the stadium scrimmage is 20,782 set two years ago.
